Sport Climbing Australia introduces inclusive gender category at elite competitions

Sport Climbing Australia will introduce an inclusive gender category at elite competitions following the International Olympic Committee's ban on transgender women. The move responds to advocacy from athletes like non-binary climber Luce and trans woman Phoebe, who experienced misgendering and discrimination in binary competitive pathways. Currently, inclusive categories exist only at social climbing events in most Australian states.
